(...) Ok, this got my curiosity: how many 2x4s are there in a pound ? I took a tub of red 2x4s and measured them onto one of my scales (better than 1/10 oz accuracy). It took 101 2x4 bricks to make 8 oz. So Legoland is selling them for approx (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.market.theory)

(...) Oog. My Target only had the AAT on sale, and it was only $5 off. There were a ton of A-Wings on the shelf, but they were full price. I picked up three more Droid Escape sets, tho. :^) ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 19-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

However, the quality is not as good, since they are mixing around in the big bin as well as on the scale before they scrape them into the bag. /Eric (...)
